If you get a chance sometime this summer, there's a nesting colony in the highway overpass right in front of the California Railroad Museum in Sacramento. There was an article about it a couple years ago in my purple martin magazine and last year when we visited my brother, I saw the place. They fly up into the drip holes and nest inside the highway overpass.RuthieJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663411478574192825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4854762792778878452.post-73177515343088325382007-06-14T00:09:00.000-05:002007-06-14T00:09:00.000-05:00Oh Ruth - how nice to discover a couple of new thi...Oh Ruth - how nice to discover a couple of new things. I've never seen martins (at least I don't think I have). It would be so nice if they would nest in your yard. And those bunnies - let's hope they are safe, and stay out of your veggie garden!Mary Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08077077785157768787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4854762792778878452.post-83634180046224134032007-06-13T15:52:00.000-05:002007-06-13T15:52:00.000-05:00Hi Jayne & Tom,I'm keeping my fingers crossed for ...Hi Jayne & Tom,<BR/>I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the martins. Maybe this will be the year a pair actually nests successfully and my colony begins.... They are the most amazing flyers.<BR/><BR/>Hi Mary,<BR/>Did you notice the time that I posted that blog? I was soooo tired today from staying up way past my bedtime to get the post finished.<BR/><BR/>Those bunnies didn't even squirm when we picked them up. Today they're gone (I hope their mom found a safer place to hide them).RuthieJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663411478574192825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4854762792778878452.post-60536032098526261122007-06-13T12:49:00.000-05:002007-06-13T12:49:00.000-05:00Those bunnies are cute but I just love seeing all ...Those bunnies are cute but I just love seeing all those martins!
